This is The Guardian. [upbeat music] Hello, and welcome to The Guardian Football Weekly. An extraordinary game between Argentina and Cape Verde. At the end, bodies were everywhere, and Cape Verde kept pushing, and pushing, and pushing. Sidney Lopes Cabral with the moment of the tournament up there with the great World Cup goals, arcing a glorious strike into the top right-hand corner to equalize for a second time. It was absolute perfection. They were brave, good on the ball. Vozinha was great again. Piko Lopez heroic, but in the end it wasn't quite enough. Messi with an exquisite touch and finish. Martinez banging one in, and then Cristian Romero in off the defender. And it will be Egypt next for Argentina after Egypt beat Australia on penalties. The Socceroos changed their keeper. Two center backs missed spot kicks. The inquest down under has started already. In truth, neither side were that good. And then Colombia beat Ghana. An early goal was enough in a sea of yellow in Dallas. Ghana once again, a hard watch. We'll discuss the England, Mexico kick-off time almost but not changing. There's more fallout from Croatia Snicko-gate. We'll answer your questions, and that's today's Guardian Football Weekly. [upbeat music] On the panel today, Archie Rhind-Tutt. Welcome.
